Favourite Movies of All Time

Here they are, then, the normblog Favourite Movies of All Time, as resulting from the poll announced on December 21.

There were entries from 151 people, and there were votes for 659 different movies. Of these: 414 movies secured only one vote apiece, 110 only two, 46 three, 27 four, and 10 five. These 607 movies sink below the radar and do not appear in the results (with an exception to be duly explained). The movies securing ten or more votes yield a top 20, and those securing between six and nine votes a top 50 (actually 21 and 52, respectively, on account of ties).

Here, first, are the 50 Favourite Movies, with the number of votes obtained by each given imediately after its place number.
